Behavior of Long‐Slotted Perforated Steel Plate Fuses in Timber Brace End Connections
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Steel perforated plate fuses have emerged as a promising solution for mass timber seismic force‐resisting systems, offering tunable energy dissipation mechanisms, such as flexural and shear yielding, through geometric adjustments. This study examines the cyclic performance of perforated steel plate fuses employed in timber braced frames, with ...

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.The graphical abstract presents the concept of applying machine‐learning algorithms to assess the performance of photovoltaic modules. Data from solar panels are fed to surrogates of intelligent models, to assess the following performance metrics: identifying faults, quantifying energy production and trend degradation over time. The combination of data

CONCRETE OVERLAYS FOR CONCRETE AND ASPHALT PAVEMENTS
Proceedings of the International Conference on Concrete PavementsConcrete resurfacing of worn concrete pavements has been a fairly common practice in the United States for more than 60 years. Since the mid- 1950's new construction on the Interstate System has taken precedence, and fewer concrete resurfacing projects were built.
